Complicated to get started on for a new user

What do you dislike about the product?
Data visualisation looks clunky. It's not a modern UI.
On our Enterprise version, the data is bulk loaded every 24 hours and it takes a considerable amount of time to load.
Loading reports can be a little slow but providing you don't mind waiting a good few seconds,it's not a big issue (just used to instantaneous data) - Likely hardware as well as software contributing.

Suppling our org with data from a variety of data sources. Whether that's an adhoc project or an on-going metric, SPLUNK is a go-to that we use to view and analyse data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Data analysis can grow rapidly with a variety of end points coming into play. Highly recommend you define a scalable strategy that focuses on the teams that are likely to require the data. Without this, you're at risk of firefighting down the line for competing demand across each team. In terms of the software, we host SPLUNK on our own hardware. There are pros and cons to this and personally I prefer to go supplier hosted (assuming appropriate security checks) as it saves you the headache of monitoring and managing infrastructure.
Great monitoring tool for performance improvement
What do you like best about the product?
Splunk is an enterprise performance monitoring tool to analyze the system logs. The best part of it is to give the detailed description of errs/exceptions from logs
What do you dislike about the product?
Connecting to Splunk from the other tools is a bit complex though it monitors the whole enterprise wide app logs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We usually use Splunk to pinpoint the errs/exceptions from our cloud env. With this tool, we get the issues on the specific POD to check and correct the POD configuration.

SPLUNK - Security Analyst Review
What do you like best about the product?
SPLUNK - I have been using this tool for quite a long time now, and it has been excellent. My current organization uses it for security logs analysis in which I feel is the best tool that anyone can use with all the quality segregated data that it provides and the in-depth log analysis. One can make a dashboard that can be easier to understand data. Can create automated alerts and reports based on the logs received. It helps in lots of things.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does take a toll on the host machine on which it is running, so beware of the type of host you are using.
Familiarity with XML is necessary to create some great dashboard reports for clients.

Splunk is very good data analysing tool, on which we can work on comex queries in very easy way
What do you dislike about the product?
Compare to other Bi tools, splunk lack in Visualization
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using splunk to capture logs and events from multiple servers, which we can analyse centrally in splunk
Best Customisable Raw Data Capture Software
What do you like best about the product?
So simple for Splunk to capture all the data that runs on an enterprise's applications. Splunk acts as the repository to take this data and then gives us the opportunity to 'slice and dice the data' as we wish to generate reports, improve analysis, get a better handle on our business, improve productivity, improve business/market intelligence, react more quickly to trends, take decisions more proactively etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Absolutely nothing at all. Splunk is a collusus, which we are learning more about all the time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have for the first time been able to search and analyse all our data in one place. We can monitor this data as well. It has allowed us to generate dashboards with alerts and events that are tailor-made for our organisation. We've been able to take action on long-standing issues.
Providing metrics has also improved through business reports, graphs etc. for senior management.
The power of Splunk and its versatility has also allowed us to detect data patterns,

Cutting edge but minor issues
What do you like best about the product?
Splunk is a truly self-service platform for ingesting many disparate data sources and performs very well in benchmark tests against its competitors. The ui is high quality and easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
There are certain functionalities that don't come out of the box and require additional licensing if you truly want to get the best use of the tool. This process could be more transparent
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Marrying lots of different data and making sure everything is still performant. We have saved hundreds of hours and data accuracy is also a significant bonus factor
Good analytics tool
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use for non-technical users but powerful for security and operations. There are add-ons / apps for everything you could need.
What do you dislike about the product?
Managing add-ons and getting the right data in can be difficult and time consuming. Sometimes the documentation is a little vague.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analyzing our logs and performing security audits on our assets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be willing to have a full-time employee dedicated to administrating Splunk
